Ritesh and Ankush operated from a house in Palam Vihar in in Gurgaon, Haryana, it says, adding that it has seized eight laptops, a CPU, 57 cellphones and Rs 26,30,000 in cash from the house.
The duo are be examined about transactions routed and settled through various bookies in India and abroad to find out the quantum of money involved, it says.
